cocaleo

Hijo de la guerra norteamericana contra las drogas, un aymara llamado Evo- acompañado por una tropa de cocaleros- atraviesa los Andes y el Amazonas en jeans y zapatillas, encabezando una contienda histórica para convertirse en el primer presidente indígena de Bolivia. Born out of the U.S. war on drugs, an Aymara Indian nemed Evo Morales - backed by a troop of coca leaf farners - travels through the Andes and Amazon in jeans and sneakers, leading a historic bid to become Bolivia's first Indiginous president. The filmmakers, granted astonishing up close and personal access to Evo, capture the intimate moments of this controversial figure and his triumphant rise to power. A story of geopolitics, people's movements, indiginous culture, and one man's impressive determination, Cocalero is a "luminous portrait of working people in a rare triumph against U.S. imperialism."
